Metallics JBHC31G – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Is a hot dip galvanized bolt like the JBHC31G OK for outdoor or damp locations?
Hot dip galvanizing is the heavier zinc coating used on fasteners that live outdoors, in damp vaults, or on exterior strut and equipment mounts, which is why the JBHC31G is specified HDG rather than plain or zinc plated. For indoor dry runs a plain finish bolt works, but if the fastener sees weather or washdown, the galvanized version is the one to order.
2) What do electricians use a 5/8 x 1-1/2 hex bolt for?
At 5/8 inch diameter it is a structural size fastener, used for anchoring heavy channel and strut assemblies, transformer and panel mounting brackets, pole and crossarm hardware, and ground bar or equipment pads. The 1-1/2 inch length is short, so it is meant for thin clamped stacks, strut plus a bracket for example, not through a deep build up.
3) Do nuts and washers come with the Metallics JBHC31G bolts?
The JBHC31G jar contains hex bolts only. Nuts, flat washers, and lock washers are separate items, so order matching 5/8 inch hot dip galvanized nuts and washers alongside them if you need a complete assembly.
4) How much usable grip length does a 1-1/2 inch long 5/8 bolt give you?
Length on a hex bolt is measured from under the head to the tip, so the 1-1/2 inch dimension on the JBHC31G is the full shank. Subtract the thickness of what you are clamping plus the nut and washers to see how much thread is left. On a short bolt in this diameter the thread typically runs most of the shank, so there is little unthreaded body to work with; for thicker assemblies step up to a longer 5/8 bolt.
